The Future of Technology and Domain-Specific Compilers
1:10:53 - 1:15:15 (04:21)
In this episode, the hosts discuss the growing distrust of new technology due to its unfamiliarity and the potential for exponential growth in specialized infrastructure. They also explore how MLIR is providing faster and more effective ways to build domain-specific compilers.

There is a lot of similarity and redundancy between the two infrastructures in Swift compilers, requiring the building of a whole thing from scratch for each domain.

Swift Compilers
Summary
There is a lot of similarity and redundancy between the two infrastructures in Swift compilers, requiring the building of a whole thing from scratch for each domain. Hotspot is one of the compilers that is really efficient in this space.

The number of ASICs, specific infrastructure things, and architecture things, may multiply exponentially in the future, while LLVM, a compiler for a specific domain, is not aware of all the cool new things done in the new thing.
